Episode 168: Andrea Brooks


Listen Later

Andrea Brooks is beloved around the world for playing two characters that couldn’t be more dissimilar: scientist and assassin Eve Teschmacher on CW’s Supergirl, and the kind-hearted (and unlucky-in-love) Dr. Faith Carter on Hallmark’s When Calls the Heart. For years, Andrea moved back and forth between the two characters, sometimes on the same day. So how’d she do that? What does she think of her characters’ divergent choices, moral centers, and tastes in music? What really happened between Nathan and Faith in the season eight finale of When Calls the Heart? And which character would she prefer to hang out with IRL: Eve or Faith? In this expansive and entertaining episode, Andrea discusses the joys and challenges of playing wildly different characters on wildly different shows with wildly different fandoms, and explores that most pressing of questions: who is Andrea Brooks, really?
